The Chinese word 早晨 (zǎochén) for "morning" is composed of two characters: 早 (zǎo), meaning "early," and 晨 (chén), meaning "morning." The character 早 is a pictograph depicting the sun rising over the horizon, while the character 晨 is a combination of the characters 日 (rì), meaning "sun," and 辰 (chén), meaning "dawn." Together, the two characters form the word 早晨, which refers to the time of day when the sun rises and the morning begins.
